Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

People seem to like me more than fine actually. Are you projecting?

It's funny, instead of actually engaging in conversation and addressing the points, you instead hurl out insults, accusations, and ad hominems. It's almost like you don't have a leg to stand on or something.

I have considered my reasons for my beliefs, and why I even have those reasons to start with. You can't address that. I think the one telling others to think for themselves has some thinking they need to do.

You deserved what you got. Hey, Go have a nice memorial day. I will. You probably don't know so I'll tell you. It's the ones that died to give you the freedom to have any view you want.

I'm the son of a veteran dipshit.

Why are you trying to be an asshole? What do you get out of it? It can't make you happier.

Lowest iq reply ever. Being the son of a veteran is taking credit for doing nothing. I actually am a veteran. You shouldn't speak soft little dipshit.
